Asked By:donaldrjr in Fayetteville, Georgia

I’ve had a crown placed a while ago and I constantly feel it against my cheek. It’s very irritating is this normal for crowns? Should I go back to to dentist and have them replace it? i constantly feel it throughout the day and unlike another crown I have which I do not feel at all. It’s a zirconia crown.
